Chapter 11 Flashcards
Invertebrates
Does not have a back bone
Vertebrates
Has a back bone
Animal kingdom phylum
1) Porifera ( giant sponge vase)
2) Cnidaria ( jelly fish hydra)
3) Platyhelminthes ( Turbellaria, flukes)
4) nematoda ( hookworm, pink worm)
5) Rotifera ( Rotifers)
6) Annelida ( earthworms, leaches )
7) mollusca ( snails, clams)
8) Anthropoda ( insects, crab, mites )
9) Echinodermata ( starfish, sea )
10) Chordata ( fish , amphibians)
Cephalization
The concentration of nerve tissue and receptors at the anterior end of an animal body
Sessile
Not capable of independent movement. Sessile animals remain fixed in one place throughout their adult lives
Motile
Capable of movement . Motile animals are able to move from place to place by expending cellular energy
Hermaphroditic
Sharing both male and female sex cells
Larva
An intermediate form that an organism goes through to achieve adult form. Tadpoles are larval frogs
Metamorphoses
A series of stages that an organism goes through, from egg to adult
Nematocysts
Stinging capsules that aid in the capture of prey
Scolex
The knob like head of a tapeworm
Proglotttids
The segment like divisions of a tapeworms body
Segmentation
The repetition of body units that contain some similar structures
Nephridia
Open-ended tubules that function in extraction
Clitellum
A smooth swollen band found about on third of a way along the body of some Annelids. It secretes a protective covering for the eggs
Dioecious
Describes organism in which the male and female reproductive organs or Gonalds are carried by separate individuals
Endoskeleton
An internal skeleton
Exoskeleton
A tough outer covering or cuticle that provides protection and support to an organism
Animal kingdom
Had 10 major phylum
Divide into 2 groups invertebrates and vertebrates
Body symmetry
- radial or bilateral symmetry
- relates to lifestyle and brain development
- higher brain development
Phylum Porifera ( sponges )
Sessile Irregular shape No mouth or digestive cavity Marine and freshwater Cells are specialized but not arranged in tissues and organs
Porifera feeding
Inside of body cavity lined with flagellated collar cells
Flagella aid in creating water currents that move water and small particles contained within it into the sponge through the small pores on the side
Wastes are carried out via the open market he of the sponge called osculum
Phylum Cnidaria
Jellyfish hydra
Medusoid form ( motile) and polyp( sessile) form in life cycle of some organisms
Radial symmetry
Marine with a few fresh water
Worm phyla
1) Platyhelminthes ( lacking a coelom )
2) Nematoda ( no peritoneum covering the body cavity )
3) Annelida ( having a true coelom)
